Urad dhal (Black Lentil) Recipes from Sri Lanka 🫘 Indian and Sri Lankan Dosai, Sambaru & More!

I’m harvesting the urad bean, also known as black gram and many other names, and will show you the journey these beans make from the field to your plate. (Or banana leaf!)
➡️ I’ll prepare today’s dishes in a traditional way: soaking and removing the skin, creating a bean paste on a stone grinder, and cooking over a wood fire on a clay stove.
Today’s menu consists of chili shrimp ulundu vadai, sambar, crispy dosa, and more!

Urad bean is related to mungo and is popular throughout South Asia.
➡️ Not only can it be used in soups like sambar, a vegetable mix with curry and tamarind, but it also goes well with sweeter foods like dosa, which is like a lentil-based pancake.
Join me for black gram-based meals that are good for your health and watch a cooking process that is also gentle on the environment!

💬 By the way, were you surprised to see that beans can be used for sweet foods or for deserts? Let me know in the comments below!
